play the south

LukinFan · June 2011

with all of the talk about PJ playing only festivals in the south lately for the big payday, do we think they will do it again this year? And if they do, will you go?

2008- Bonnaroo (with 3 other southern shows- WPB, Tampa, and Columbia)
2009- ACL
2010- JazzFest
2011- ???? (as Shep said, maybe Voodoo? Are there any others that still need to be announced?)

I would go, if it was driving distance. Damn, I gotta see PJ or Ed in 2011!

But I agree, it's doubtful PJ would play 2 festivals in NO in back to back years... but a guy can hope. I just like the fact that this festival might be worth the drive after my extreme disappointment with the ACL lineup...

Voodoo seems to be approaching the 1st tier festival status faster than any of the other smaller festivals... hopefully it continues to grow... NO is always a lot of fun.

doesn't rule it out, but doesn't seem to likely, but who knows? Maybe they'll stop by NO on their way to S. America? And yeah I agree about Voodoo, they always seem to get the bigger acts than the smaller festivals, but they certanily are not a Roo

Hey - I certainly am not arguing with you there. In my opinion there are only 4 tier one festivals in the US:

Coachella
Bonaroo
Lollapalooza
ACL

Debatedly, Jazzfest falls into this category - but I don't really know how to classify jazzfest... it's a really weird festival.... however it is definitely as big as those listed above and has just as big a payday for their main acts....

I'm still trying to figure out who deemed Arcade Fire a major festival Sunday night headliner. Yes, they are good, and yes, I do like them, but they have only put out 3 albums! 3 albums that are exactly that - albums that need to be played in their entirety... I don't understand how they became a Sunday night headliner so quickly...

I don't think I've ever even heard a song my arcade fire before, to be honest. And I agree, other than MMJ headlining, ACL is pretty weak this year.

I would like to see MMJ again, however, I'm not paying for the festival just to see them. And with no headline acts I actually want to see.... I mean Kayne West? Stevie Wonder?.... Unless they are going to do a duet about gay fish I have no interest...

And that says a lot, cause usually I will use any excuse to go to Austin for a weekend... I just feel ripped off because they sold all the 3-day passes before the line-up was even announced... that was the only reason they were able to get away with this crap.

Voodoo is the only festival left I can think of that hasn't announced it's line-up... so maybe there's still some hope... but probably not for PJ... I just want a good festival line-up...

yup. i'm glad that we didn't buy 3 day passes this year. this will be the 1st year where we only go to one day. we're going on Saturday....hope to catch some aftershows as well. i really thought the lineup would be better b/c it's their 10th anniversary. oh well!

back on topic....

PJ,
play the South.

Well the only good thing about it for me is that I bought 3-day hard tickets... when they actually show up I'll have no problem getting rid of them...

Actually a little rotted about that too - one of my friends offered to take the tickets and my hotel off my hands.... I was going to scalp both of them (I bought tickets for 165 and 3-day passes are going for over 200 each on fleabay and I have the best hotel in Austin booked for the trip and I can transfer my reservation to someone else)... but I can't do it cause my friend wants it....

FWIW,
the birdie says you should still invest in a good pair of flipflops.
Both of the P bands.

I truly hope your friend is right, but why would they hold out a name like PJ, wouldn't that hurt ticket sales?
